Now I get to the point. I have found this training unbelievably helpful. My intonation and pitch accuracy are unimaginably better than before. I try to sing everything before I ever play it, and this really helps. Also, now that I am fluent with solfege, I say the syllables along when I play, this always, always helps. I think this is different and perhaps better than "singing along in you head," or trying to sing in the horn. If you have learned solfege, try at first writing all the syllables along in your part and just reading them, and be sure to hear them as you play. Makes a huge difference I promise! When you do the solfege mentally when playing do you sing it on pitch or just monotone it in your head?
